Not only an amazing player but by far one of the best coach’s on RUclips. You explain the methods in a way that everyone understands not just for those who’ve played for years. Thank you paddy
I wish I could say thanks to you in person..... I was stuck in low 80s for about a year ... then your golf tips came along .... I have broken 80 in Jan 2021 and doing it consistently ... you know you are great!
Padraig thankfully has put a lot of time and effort into this channel. Very unusual for a tour pro to spend this much time helping amateurs. Seems like he enjoys doing it. Love watching him.
In the midst of Waste Management, he who has the heart and time devoted to us mortals in front of RUclips is definitely a cool person with great personality. Thank you so much, Mr. Harrington!
This guy should be a pro golfer. He seems really good. 👍
This is a treat... I'm sure you couldn't buy Padraig's time.. Thank you Sir ☘️
Come for the tip. Stay for the warm and genuine personality. Great tip champ!
Feckin awesome, I'll be aiming at the bunkers from now on.
Thanks a million Padraig! There are so many golf instructional videos on RUclips but you are a million miles ahead of anyone else, you make it so simple to follow in my opinion 👍
Padraig-I cannot say THANK YOU any louder!!! I watched this yesterday and tried it today. Bringing the R heel off the ground profoundly improved my bunker play!! I tried this with wedges also as I tend to sway-first wedge I almost holed from 95 yds!! THANK YOU THANK YOU. I shot 37 on back 9 today with your help!! Brian
The best bunker lesson . Excellent. Very instructive. Thanks Paddy .
Inside the white fence and giving us ACTUAL lessons! This is priceless.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the taking the time for us. (Those guys on the green would be in the danger zone with me swinging.)
Thanks to your lifted trail foot tip, yesterday I made the best two bunker shots of my life!
Thanks for explanation. I don't know why your lesson is very convincing and so powerful. Probably the way you hit it so pure or the way you explain from real experience. This is the difference. Also 'wow' with the place you took this video.
I hope these videos never end!
I look forward to giving this a go next week. Well explained. Thanks a mill 👍🏻
Been struggling to get it together in high 80s and shot an 81 yesterday after watching 3 of these videos. Can't wait for putting! Thank you good sir, this is truly special stuff.
Most amateurs trying to play full shots from a fairway bunker - actually end up playing great green side bunker shots instead ( but never realize it ) great scope from Mr Padraig once again
A big thumbs up Padraig !👍
The right heel & inside take away tips have helped me a whole lot! Thanks again.
Super lesson👌thank you
Thanks again Padraig. I like the way you always explain the reasons why you hit shots a certain way.
I just recently discovered your channel and I must say you are a fantastic teacher. Your passion just shows through these videos. Please keep these gems coming.
You might not even remember doing these golf tips but just incase here's a big thank you reminder!! I'm going through each of these tip videos and you've helped me so much Mr. Harrington.
All Paddy's tips are pure gold...
Love how simple you explain things 👍🏻⛳️
Great tips, can't wait to get out again. Thanks Mr. H. 👍👍
Best part of my game 👍
A real eyeopener - superb teaching - thank U so much for this video.
Whole moly. Thank You Paddy.
Wonderful to see this vid @ Emirates golf club, 👍
Awesome again! That’s for bringing more people into the game Paddy,
quite amazing. he makes it sound and look easy, but it's anything but. he hits masterpeice shots over and over.
Best golf instruction on the internet!
Thank you, Paddy! I SO GREATLY appreciate you taking the time to make these videos! You are awesome!
Thanks Padraig I remember watching you play in the North of Ireland Amateur in 1991 at Portrush. It was very clear that you, Dazzler and McGinner were going a long way (and that I wasn't! 😪).
Awesome Padrig I watch all your lessons..LEGEND!!!!
Hope you get over Covid ASAP take care. We need you strong for the Ryder Cup. Best wishes from all in Waterford

Tour level instruction for us mortals, you are just awesome,, Paddy
Best teacher on RUclips period
Exactly what I needed! Thanks for all the wisdom.. You are a real treasure to the game!
How about one on how to play fairway Bunkers and long greenside bunkers shots. Looking forward to your next golf tip
Great stuff Paddy..pity I can't practice that in the house?? 🍺
Great golf lately Padraig, keep it up. I still think you can win big, nothing to prove. Thanks for the bunker insight.
Thanks for the tips, always more to learn, I used to fear bunkers for so long then it comes together all at once. It's no longer an issue and I am trying to "make shots", it's much more fun. I seem to find them bunkers LOL. Getting up and down from a bunker is a joy for sure.
Brilliant tips as usual Padraig, keep them coming please.
Top! Very helpful stuff. Please could you also address in another lesson sidehill lies, different types of sand and different ball flights out of the sand?
Padraig so many thank for all the fantastic videos. I learn so much and hope to lower my handicap by practicing with the help of your tips. Many thanks.
Been working on my chipping and using your drill padraig and realised timing is the key and you also have cured my issue with hitting behind the ball thanks
Padraigs instagram bunker lesson during the lockdown helped me a lot and this is even better.
One question I have is how does one play out of very wet sand? It rains here very frequently during the golf season and it is 50-50 whether the sand is dry.
Thank you for your videos. My chipping is so good after watching your video.
I was a solid bunker player, then I went through some swing changes that really improved my ball striking. Unfortunately it seems to have destroyed my bunker play. I was stubborn to believe it because I was pretty good and figured I would figure it out. It got worse and worse. Then I asked myself where should I go. First place I thought of was Padraig's page. Going to practice this right now.Thanks man It all made sense.
Mr. Harrington, Thank you again for all of these videos. I understand better from you what needs to be done, I go and try all of your tips and see exactly what the improvement is! You are the only channel I have the bell turned on for when you send out new videos! I hope you do a Tom Watson and are in contention for this years open! Jeff
Another great video Padraig. Some constructive feedback... watching it I was saying to myself ‘when is he going to tell us it is the wave of sand the bounce of the club generates which should lift and propel the ball, not contact with the face’. You finally got around to mentioning that at the eight minute mark but it would have been better to format the advice on the problem solving framework of: goal > strategies > tools and tactics. That’s a framework Sun Tzu suggested in “The Art of War” I’ve used for many years for problem solving and whenever I need to teach another person anything.
I would venture an educated guess -based on asking other golfers-few beginners understand what ‘bounce’ on a club is or why more is needed on a sand wedge than a pitching wedge (someone measured Hogan’s PW and found it had negative bounce). Gene Sarazen is credited with inventing the higher bounce SW in the mid-1930s to in response to the “Spoon” club being banned and a PW tending to either dig in or skip and scull the ball. He took a club and melted lead onto it to create more of a “snow plow” effect, he became as bunker wizard others copied his idea. Now it is the status quo but few if asked know why.
Beginning in golf I never understood how to hit a sand shot until a caddie told me the goal was for the club to push a wave of sand from behind under the ball. Slap forehead with palm, start hitting good bunker shots. What are the strategies for creating the wave of sand? Starting with a high bounce SW and / or opening the face which increases bounce relative to swing path, but also causes the hosel to lead which may cause shanks which suggests changing technique vs. a normal shot off turf and putting the ball more toward the toe of the club if that occurs.
Thanks again Paddy for this video. What club is best for a bunker, I would switch between my 60° or sandwedge
Appreciate your help...always take your advice seriously...thank you...
Thank you Padraig for sharing with us.
Thank you for all these great tips Padraig!
Superb as always. My go to bunker techniques from when I first saw your theories at the British Masters at Woburn. So simple but effective. Cheers!
1:55 there is no way you could have hit the front of the line 4 times in a row so perfectly, that wedge was a paid actor with batteries.
Hope you get well soon
Thanks so much Padraig for helping us amateurs out your a great instructor as well as a player.
Could you comment on the over the top feel a bit more. I thought from bunkers you need a shallow rather than steep divot, so it is more forgiving for slightly fat shots ?
Thanks Paddy! Would love a little more on long green side bunker shots. I have lots of these playing Bethpage Black. Shots in the 20-40 yard range. Is it better to try and pick the ball rather than long explosion. Try P wedge etc?
Thanks Patty great tips best wishes this year
Another great video....thanks! I am adding these tips to my notes in my phone so I have a quick reference guide when at the range or even on the course if I am unsure what to do. Can't wait to practice these sand shots. I feel like in the last year my confidence in the bunker has fell off the roof.
Thank you so much. These lessons are invaluable.
Greetings Padraig -- any hints on really short and high bunker shots (deep bunker, high edge, short distance to the flag)? I am so thankful for your channel!
Simply explained and demonstrated. Great insights
Very good lesson. Thanks
amazing....not playing this man unless I get 3 strokes per hole...and then it won't be close....
Brilliant, thanks so much for this 👍
Gold! Thanks so much!
The amount of sand in my home course is ridiculous . Each bunker has too much sand and could plug from anywhere
Paddy,
Sorry to hear that you've got COVID, wishing you a speedy recovery!
Be good to do a short follow up with wet sand and rock hard sand
Fantastic Padraig. Bunkers are something I fear but look forward to them now. Just re: fairway bunkers, whats the best method? Keep up the brilliant work. Peter
Great tips. One hole at my club has a green side bunker that is about 6 feet lower than the surface of the green. Could you do a video showing how to play a bunker shot that requires the ball to get up quickly and high? Thanks.. BTW my Berner says hi to Wilson!
Thanks for your help.
Awesome tutorial wish the sound was better
Hey Paddy, just wondering about a bare lie in the bunker? These days with the rakes not allowed, many of the bunkers are far more firm than normal. It's practically impossible to splash it out. What would you recommend then? Many thanks, Q
I just posted an instructional sand video on my channel Big Boy Pants Golf. My teaching pro recommended keeping my nose over the ball so I didn’t bottom out too early. Do you recommend something like that?
Key takeaway: Paddy gets it up by using his hands.
There’s lot of background noise. It’s really good instruction, but hard to hear 😟
Padraig does this all apply the same to hard packed sand versus the fluffy stuff? Thanks very much!
What club?
This video must have been shot with an iPhone. The video quality is not up to par. You should try shooting videos with the Samsung S Ultra series phone. Amazing camera quality.
Your cameraman is more interested in taking pictures of you rather than your ball position
Good stuff, but difficult to hear you.
terrible sound , ruins the all content !
